Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!! Everything was beautiful and exactly as described!
Contessa C. Nov 7, 2024 08:09:14 AM
Summary: The property is beautiful, it does not disappoint. The cabin is a perfect mix of old and new, it had everything we needed to enjoy the weekend. I will definitely stay there again when in the area. Check in was easy and convenient. The property manager checked in to see if we needed anything and was a great source of information.
Maria Z. Oct 7, 2024 12:16:49 AM
Summary: This was a wonderful stay and so peaceful. We had three deer visit us our first evening. We sat outside on the decks and watched the stars. We hope to return for a longer stay!
Shannon J. Jul 8, 2024 10:23:18 PM
Summary: This is a beautiful property off of the beaten path, literally. No cable or wifi, so perfect to get away in peace! House was nice and cozy. Caretaker was very responsive. Closest grocery, Kroger, in Elkview, along with Tudor's Biscuit and Hen's and Heifer's. Enjoyed beautiful sunrise and sunset every day with watching the deer roam the fields. Worth the drive to New River Gorge Bridge for whitewater rafting. The Beckley Exhibition Coal Mine Tour and the Tamarack Craft Center was also a good trip.
Karen and James R. Jul 8, 2023 11:01:44 AM
Summary: We loved everything about this place. So beautiful and quiet, and a place to be away from it all. We brought in a cooler with food and had everything we needed. Everyone slept great, too.
Daniel W. Oct 3, 2022 05:00:02 PM
Summary: The 4 of us are life long friends that live in different states, and wanted to spent a weekend together. The Benedict Haid Black Bear cabin was the perfect "get away" location - clean, and well appointed, and the property and cabin views were gorgeous. The large building and house up the road looked to be perfect for a wedding. I highly recommend the Benedict Haid property.

Summary: Myself and three friends stayed here for the weekend. The location is lovely and very clean. It is, however, at the top of a long and windy road. If you are not used to driving in the hills, it may be daunting, but we got used to it. There were mutiple, old barnwood cabins on the property and would make a lovely location for a wedding. The caretakers onsite took great care of us, and were responsive to our messages. We brought groceries with us, but be aware, there are no groceries of any kind on site. If you want it, bring it with you, including coffee, spices and condiments, etc. There were challenging trails to walk, and beautiful scenery everywhere and wildlife to enjoy. There is NO WiFi and wireless service is spotty, so it is a great place to unwind. We enjoyed ourselves very much and would recommend.

Summary: Such a sweet place to get away, and get away you do! Once you have made the interesting trek up you won't want to leave, because it wraps you in comfort and beauty, with a gorgeous spacious structure built with integrity, beautiful grounds, and the backdrop of the West Virginia mountains. There are beautiful sleighbeds in each room, a lovely kitchen, interesting art pieces and a large inviting fireplace. Watch the sun set on the back bedroom deck, and rise on the front porch and enjoy watching the deer and birds. This property is close to hiking trails and Charleston is nearby with some interesting looking shops and restaurants. Upon arrival Steven was welcoming and helpful in answering questions, and the owner Emmett was quick to respond to inquiries as well. Highly recommended...
